Basically it seems that the usual suspects are mad, that there are no blacks in this game.

Saw this, but wasn't sure where to post it...I have no time vidya lately, so haven't been paying attention to any controversies. But this seemed a bit exceptional.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance – do you care what the developer is like? The morning Inbox suggests making a Star Wars game about bounty hunters, as one reader wonders whatever happened to Splinter Cell. To join in with the discussions yourself email gamecentral@ukmetro.co.uk Medieval views

I’ve seen a lot of discussion on here concerning the forthcoming Kingdom Come: Deliverance. I don’t often feel the need to do this, but I feel I’ve got to put out a Buyer Beware on the developers responsible for the game. Frankly speaking, the lead developer, Daniel Vávra, is an unashamed racist and sexist. His Twitter account is full of anti-PC, anti-‘social justice warrior’ tirades that come across as the ramblings of a xenophobe. He is also a supporter of GamerGate and makes absolutely no attempt to hide his reprehensible opinions.

This interview with Kotaku in July 2015 laid his beliefs bare. In fact, one of the reasons he developed the game was because he believed it was ‘historically accurate’ to not have any non-white characters anywhere, which is provably false given that medieval life was a melting pot of different races. The Journal of Medieval and Early Modern Studies published a paper on it, on how pointless it was to compare modern concepts of race to medieval notions of ethnicity.

People have brought up the argument that the hundreds of other developers who worked on the game don’t deserve to suffer lost sales because of one racist, but I have to call foul on that. He’s unashamed in his racism, and it’s clear the game comes from a source of deep rot.

I implore people to not buy the game, to boycott it. We have to show that people who hold such disgusting views should not be rewarded, and that games that come from such a rotten, anti-progressive stance don’t deserve to succeed. Andrew Middlemas PS: Incidentally, one of the sound engineers who worked on Subnautica was revealed to be a massive bigot, and was consequently fired from the studio. I hope the gaming community does more to thin out the cancerous elements that infest it.

I know a german city near the borders of the czech republik and poland. I was at the historical museum once or twice. Over 1000 years of history and not a single dindu nuffin is ever mentioned.

Weird....not

Daniel Ravra rules. He's a man's man.

I thought this game was gonna be about a canoe adventure in the deep south.

The dude is one of the main reasons why I preordered the game. I mean, it looks fantastic, but I do prefer to get word of mouth before I get a game (I rarely buy them at full price anyway, but was willing to shell out some money soon, cause the game looks that good), but with this, I felt a bit adventurous and decided to give it a shot. This guy's "All out of fucks to give" attitude kinda deserves being rewarded with some trust.

See, the funny thing is that these people essentially claim that every medieval hamlet was as ethnically """diverse""" as fucking Detroit is now. When you ask for any kind of historical document to provide proof or disagree along with posting something to support your stance, you are labelled a racist.
Europe was a "cultural melting pot" with tons of black people and it is so juggernaughtingly irrefutable that it apparently doesn't even need a fucking proof.
This is just utterly insane. Sure, back in those days, there was no modern concept of a nation as we have today, the concept of ethnicity might have been different too and the world already was a vast network of trade and travel, but that still would mean that black people would have been a completely insignificant rarity that most people wouldn't even have heard of. If this game was set in coastal Italy or Spain, maybe even France, there might be a point, but it's set in bumfuck Bohemia, chances of just one person of black skin color there in 1403 would go hard towards zero.

If by melting pot, you mean they stuck people in zoo exposition pieces, then yes, it was.

 

[Ted_Breakfast]

Three black people existed in Czechoslovakia at the time so obviously they must be in every depiction of the era for the sake of historical accuracy.

Similarly, every video game that takes place in modern America must feature Drew Carey, because he does, in fact, exist here and to pretend he doesn't is historically inaccurate.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance is coming out this month. That struck me as sort of weird, given that February is Black History Month, and Deliverance has failed utterly to include any people of color (PoC) in their white man power fantasy game. Surely, a development team that touts itself as being dedicated to “historical accuracy” in their game would have done some simple research. Surely the head developer at Warhorse Studios would never have done something as skeezy as responding to valid criticisms with xenophobic tweets!
No, I’m sure the folks working on Deliverance just need some last minute advice for how to include people of color in their game. So, here you go, Warhorse: Just a few character concepts that could add some representation to your game without compromising your precious “historical accuracy”:
https://archive.md/4rHfi/42405ad27acfdfb799cce4418fa03122a33975cb.jpg
A Knight
This is a game about knights, right? Among the various armored men swinging swords at one another, it would probably be easy to include a few PoC. I’ve even provided a basis for a historically accurate character design! The image above is identified as Saint Maurice, a Theban martyr venerated as a patron saint of the Holy Roman Emperors. Saint Maurice appears in art from as early as the 10th century. Often, as above, he’s bearing the Imperial coat of arms. So, historically speaking, medieval Europeans had no problem with the concept of PoC serving in their knightly orders.

A Scholar
Taking place in 15th century Bohemia means that Deliverance will coincide with the early days of Jan Hus at Charles University in Prague. Europe’s early universities were among the most ethnically diverse locations on the continent. This would be an ideal site for historically accurate representation. The above image is by Theoderic of Bohemia, a 15th century scholar and artist who had no qualms about portraying Saint Jerome with a darker skin tone. Historically, it looks like medieval folk were pretty comfortable with the idea of PoC in the academic sphere, as well.
https://archive.md/4rHfi/75675dc83ed091b1cd353cf5cc0e3ca0cfead42b.png
A Blacksmith, Merchant, or Townsperson
If medieval Europeans were so comfortable with depictions of PoC in their art, does that mean that PoC were a part of everyday life in the middle ages? Unfortunately, we don’t have strong evidence one way or the other. The fact is, we don’t have much evidence about any aspects of day-to-day in the middle ages. We do know that PoC traveled throughout Europe frequently under the Roman Empire as soldiers and settlers. It’s unlikely that they simply disappeared.
What it comes down to is a matter of what base assumptions medieval historians choose to make. Warhorse and their rabid fanboys refuse to recognize that their assumption of “white until proven otherwise” is indeed an assumption. It’s a rather sweeping one at that, but it’s become privileged as centuries of white historians have nodded along. Meanwhile, they get to shout down any framework as “revisionist”. It’s academically lazy at best, if not blatantly suppressive. But of course, we already know it’s not really about historical accuracy.
Ultimately, Warhorse is going to stick to its racist guns, as are their fans. The issue of representation in gaming won’t be solved by dialogues or articles on the internet. But I promised a solution. A decent start though is to avoid buying games likeDeliverance altogether. Even better, you can spend your money supporting games developed by PoC. Without backers, Deliverance wouldn’t exist. The simple fact is that without support, representation in gaming won’t exist either.

That site sounds like a comedy goldmine, I can't tell if it's a parody or not.

Also their patreon is dead:

that is poe law in a nutshell. It is so out there with its autism that you are not sure if they are for real or not.

So here's Bohemia. As you can see, Bohemia is landlocked and rather far from the sea, so you can throw all the arguments from sea trade right out the fucking window.
